Hello, my great old outboard died at the dock after a long day of running great. No spark to any cylinder.I pulled the wires to safety switch but still no spark. Which direction should I be looking next since it was running great one minuite and dead the next? I have replaced the power pack(used) a few years ago but that died one cylinder at a time. Thanks

If you are convinced that it's not a bad kill switch, then you might try another power pack. Power packs don't always go out one cylinder at a time. Good Luck

Thanks. I tested the kill switch by unhooking the black/yellow wire from the pack(#7). Am I doing that correctly
